KSP. Never managed to even land on the Mün without a fast and violent end to the crew, but I loved building spaceships.
The best thing I managed to do was to achieve an orbit around Kerbin.
I'm pretty sure I saw a YouTube video where some actual rocket scientist said that KSP was amazingly realistic, so you having achieved anything at all seems incredible to me! I just know I spent a few hours with that game and never got anything to not explode. Some things would launch but oscillate out of control and explode eventually.
Oh no, my rockets oscillated like crazy. I just strapped more boosters and struts and hoped it got out of the atmosphere before it got Kraken'd.
I could do manned missions to Mun and Minmus, but I don't think in my hundreds of hours of play I ever set Kerbal feet on another planet. I did launch some probes though.
Shoot same! I swear to God it was like the controls were broken on every rocket I ever made. No matter how symmetrical it was I felt like I was always fighting the controls.
It was the blessed Kraken.
